WF011 - Word Formation

This document contains a gap-fill exercise testing word formation skills. Participants are instructed to use the words in brackets to form new words that fit logically into each gap in the sentences. The gaps cover a variety of word types including nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs related to topics like travel, relationships, emotions, work, safety, and more. This allows the exercise to evaluate one's ability to derive meaning from context clues and apply morphological rules to create new words that fit grammatically and semantically.
